Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 35 Morning Tea
For several days, Li Taiwei didn't sleep well, the more she thought about it, the more suspicious she felt.

From her mother's pregnancy being concealed, to Fang's imperial physician's accident, to today's Li Wenxiu, she felt faintly uneasy in her heart, as if someone had cast a big net in her prime minister's house, but she didn't know anything about it right now.

She asked her father in private, and this Mr. Wenxiu met his father about half a year ago.This person teaches chess in an academy in the capital, although he is a student of the Prime Minister's residence, he usually stays in the academy, so Li Taiwei has never seen him before.

When he was free, Li Wenxiu was also ordered to teach Li Pu how to play chess. No wonder Li Pu saw him yesterday like a mouse seeing a cat.It's a pity that when she secretly investigated this person in her previous life, she didn't let others know, otherwise she would have known that this person had stayed in her house early in the morning.

She wondered in her heart that Li Wenxiu would be able to board the boat of the second prince in the future, and wondered if his father would help him.

Thinking of the unpredictable identity of this person, it will be a big trouble in the future!
Li Taiwei was a little anxious, but there was no evidence for this matter, so it was not easy for her to tell her father.

At dawn, Li Taiwei no longer felt sleepy, got up and put on her clothes.

Nian Xia slept in the side room, heard the commotion in the house, hurriedly lit the oil lamp, approved the clothes and came in.Seeing Li Taiwei's dark eyes, he said in surprise:
"Why did the princess get up at this time? But it's called a nightmare?"

Nian Xia's eyes were sleepy, she looked out of the window with her hair in a loose bun.

The sky was pale as a fish belly, looking at the appearance of Yin Shi just passed.

Yesterday Huichun was sent to Yunye Nunnery in the afternoon, Zhaohe was worried about Li Taiwei, so he pointed Nianxia to her.

"Go and talk to the concierge. After a while, you will get a carriage and follow me to Bixiangju. You can also tell her about Jinmao's place. If mother asks, she can answer."

Nian Xia gathered the clothes on her shoulders, and when she heard this, she paused in her hands and said in surprise:
"The princess is going now?"

Li Taiwei nodded and said:
"I went to Xiliang for half a year, but it's been a long time since I ate Jade Tofu Nao, and I miss it so much."

Nian Xia couldn't help but laugh, this Bixiangju's emerald tofu brain with mutton buns is indeed a must in Beijing.

"The princess doesn't have to go in person, the servants can just ask someone to run errands and bring them back."

Li Taiwei waved his hand:
"Bringing it back is not as delicious as freshly made. I told Dafu about this breakfast in Xiliang, and she has been coveting it for a long time. If I have time today, I will take her to try it."

"Go to serve your mother today, and ask Grandma Jin for me, when will I ask the prostitute from the Summer Palace to bring some maidservants over. Now that Huichun is missing, you will run away at both ends."

Nian Xia smiled and said she didn't dare, brushed Li Taiwei's hair quickly, and ordered the maid outside to fetch water to help her freshen up.

Li Taiwei took Dafu out, and the carriage stopped in front of Bixiangju after half an hour.

The air was humid in the morning, and the tip of his nose was filled with the fragrance of soy milk, making Dafu very greedy.

When the shopkeeper saw the Xiangfu's carriage, he hurriedly put down his account book and came to greet him in person.

"Thank you shopkeeper, I want Tianzihao private room."

Mrs. Li ordered in a low voice.

The shopkeeper was full of smiles, hurriedly responded loudly, and personally sent Li Taiwei and his party upstairs.

It was early today, and there was still no one in the private room upstairs.After entering the Tianzi shop, Li Taiwei sat down by the window and asked Dafu to open the window.

The window of the elegant room of the Tianzi happened to be facing the main gate of the Changping Hou Mansion. Li Taiwei glanced at the closed doors of the Hou Mansion, and guessed that Lu Xiao hadn't left yet.

Lu Xiao has not entered the Jinwu Guard yet, he is still working in the barracks, and will leave for the barracks outside the city at about [-]:[-].

She came to Bixiangju today, naturally not for this breakfast, but just to see Lu Xiao and talk to him about it.but she

In his previous life, Li Wenxiu was the one who ordered someone to secretly investigate him. Right now, only he knows what kind of situation this person is in.

After a while, the shopkeeper personally brought in two bowls of emerald bean curd and mutton buns.

The tofu nao just out of the pan is steaming hot, the mutton bun is fried golden, and the meat is fragrant, and the greedy Dafu's saliva will flow down.

Seeing her like this, Li Taiwei smiled:
"Sit down and eat first, this tofu won't be so delicious when it's cold."

"After eating in a while, you go to guard in front of Changping Marquis Mansion for me. If you see Prince Lu, please come up. I have something to say to him."

Dafufang sat down with a smile, hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, widened his eyes and said:

"The county chief is looking for Lu Shizi?"

"But for the second young master's beating a few days ago?"

Apart from avenging Li Pu, Dafu couldn't think of any reason for Li Taiwei to come to see Lu Xiao specially.

Dafu looked down at the food in front of him, covered his chest, and asked in a panic:

"Isn't the princess planning to poison that Lu Shizi to death?"

Mrs. Li couldn't smile anymore, she glanced at her and said:
"I would like to! But he was poisoned to death, where will the body be hidden?"

Only then did Dafu feel relieved, and ate a bowl happily.

The Zhumen of the Marquis of Changping just opened, Lu Xiao saw Dafu standing in front of the door, he was surprised, he couldn't help but glanced left and right, then lifted his robe and stepped forward.

When Dafu led Lu Xiao into the private room, Li Taiwei was absent-mindedly stirring the tofu nao in the bowl.

Lu Xiao flipped up his robe and sat down opposite her. He looked up and saw the blackness in Li Taiwei's eyes, and then glanced at the smashed tofu nao in her bowl, and said suspiciously:

"What? What happened?"

Li Taiwei put down the porcelain spoon, turned to look at the door, Dafu was guarding the door.

Then he lowered his voice and said:
"Do you remember Li Wenxiu?"

Lu Xiao paused, thought for a moment, and then said:
"That staff member of Second Prince Minglou?"

Mrs. Li nodded slightly.

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrows and said:

"This person is registered in Lingnan County. He was an orphan since he was a child. He was raised by the abbot of the temple. He usually doesn't have close friends with others. The deacon of Lingnan didn't send any useful news back then."

"I heard that the city's mansion is very deep. I have lived in the second prince's mansion for many years, and I usually don't see anyone else. If you hadn't asked someone to secretly investigate Changping's matter, I'm afraid he wouldn't be implicated."

"Later, I only found out that there seemed to be occasional correspondence between him and Beishuo Palace, but there was no real evidence. When the incident happened, he escaped very quickly, and there was no trace of clues, which shows that the identity of this person is not simple. "

Lu Xiao doubted:

"Why did you suddenly ask about this man? Could it be that you saw him?"

Li Taiwei looked solemn and said:
"This person is working in my mansion right now, and he is my father's servant."

Lu Xiao was startled, and wondered:

"Li Xiang is so old."
Before he could say the three words, Li Taiwei's eyes widened, and he looked over with murderous intent. Lu Xiao hurriedly changed his words:
"Scheming"

Lu Xiao couldn't help but cast a glance at Li Taiwei, and seeing her face softened, he continued:
"Before entering the mansion, Li Xiang must have carefully checked the details of this person, so how could someone easily take advantage of his loopholes?"

This is exactly what Li Taiwei couldn't figure out. Rao this person has deep scheming, if his origin is unknown, he would definitely not ask his father to keep it for his own use with peace of mind.

Seeing Li Taiwei frowned deeply, Lu Xiao stretched out his hand to pinch a piece of mutton bun from the plate, and comforted him:

"Nowadays, people are standing under their noses, can they still fly? I've had people keep an eye on them in the past few days, and we'll always find out if we seize the opportunity. Don't act rashly, and wait for news from me."

As soon as the words fell, Li Taiwei raised his hand and snatched the mutton bun from him, saying coldly:

"Gentlemen don't take what others like! Things haven't been done yet, if you want to eat, buy it yourself!"

Lu Xiao glanced at her, snatched it back after a few moments, stuffed it into his mouth, and said with a sneer:
"You never eat mutton, how can I take you away?"

Li Taiwei told him to hit the mark, rolled his eyes angrily, and said:
"I can feed the dog!"

"."

After leaving the house, Li Taiwei realized something was wrong, how did the old widower know that she didn't eat mutton?
　Thank you Shi Gandangdangdang for your reward,
